NOTE: You can check the Exit on Failure option so that SBUU exits when a
failure occurs. If this option is not selected, in case of any failure during actual
deployment, SBUU proceeds to the next module operation. However, this may
cause your system to become unstable. Clear the Exit on Failure option only if
you are sure that the failure is known and will not adversely affect your
system.
